I'm not quite sure I understand your response here. He didn't ask for |
| 7 |
you to explain the strategy. He asked for you to provide plain-text |
| 8 |
patches. |

I think a point has been made pretty clear at this point: they need |
| 11 |
plain-text patches. Requiring developers to learn an entirely new |
| 12 |
work-flow just to get your patches into the tree is time-consuming and |
| 13 |
bothersome, at the least. This isn't a discussion about whether or not |
| 14 |
your system is better. It's about how best to integrate your work into |
| 15 |
Gentoo. |

The developers have decided the best way is through plain-text |
| 18 |
patches. That's really all there is to it. Take it or leave it. |

The discussion about how best to join multiple branches of development |
| 21 |
across the open-source world together really does not belong in this |
| 22 |
thread, as far as I can tell. |
